Caroline made this adorable little felted rabbit from 100% wool using instructions from a "Molly Make" magazine she discovered at the library.

Rosie has been playing with alcohol inks and created this lovely floral abstract. Many more to come!

Harlene not only made some beautiful butterfly pins, but also these earrings featuring decorated beads and butterfly charms. 

Geri brought a  darling baby carriage made from an ostrich egg, complete with wheels, bedding and a baby doll. Rosie has ostrich eggs available to anyone who is interested.

Here are four more of Geri's fabulous cards. She stamped the little girl figures and then dressed and embellished them. 

Rosie passed on this photo of the cute quilted pillow Judy Fleck recently completed. 

Marcella shared a fabulous card that Elise made and sent to her, plus the one below.

During last year's dreary stay-at-home days, Sharon got to work finishing several UFOs. Above is the theater she made from some unfinished pieces and parts Rosie gave her. Beautiful!

She also got out several fairy houses she had started during the Phoebe workshop several years ago and never completed. This tall one with bird's nests has an amazing roof made from pinecones she took apart piece by tiny piece and glued to the roof. 

And, last but not least, this is her one-story fairy house embellished with beads and bits of forest leaves and berries.
